              <p>The highway is locked up. Complete gridlock, and who knows when it'll clear. Based off the smoke in the distance? Not anytime soon.

<div class="story"><div class="fff_chapter_notes fff_head_notes"><b>Author's Note:</b><blockquote class="userstuff">
      <p>I saw <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z6UzBWO5AaQ">this</a> scene in Mr.Magorium's Wonder Emporium and immediately thought of this idea for a story.</p>
    </blockquote></div><div class="userstuff module">
    
    <p>“Fucking I-45.” Sandor growled as he kicked out the stand of his bike.</p>
<p>He was on his way back into town after a weekend trip up north, the first vacation he’s had in years. Not that he did anything different then what he typically does on his days off, but getting away from the hustle and bustle and noise of the city was a fucking balm for his soul. He tried to stay calm, to take himself back to when he was alone and his only company was an ice cold beer and the stars.</p>
<p>Then the asshole behind him honked, and any peace he might have brought with him back into Eastpointe was fucking shot.</p>
<p>The honk was a futile effort by a desperate motorist to deny the reality in front of him. Truth was, traffic had been crawling for a while now. Sandor had barely been able to cover 30 miles in the last hour. But that was fucking lightspeed compared to how they were moving now.</p>
<p>Which was not at all.</p>
<p>Gridlock.</p>
<p> “You think I wanna fucking be stuck here?” Sandor growled over his back, knowing the guy wouldn’t be able to hear him. Not with the way his music was blaring.</p>
<p>Not that he was special. It seemed all the cars surrounding Sandor had their own little soundtrack going, especially the van to his left. He couldn’t make out the lyrics, not that he’d be able to recognize them, but he could tell just from who was in the car exactly what they were listening to. A bunch of young 20 something women, college kids most likely, laughing and tossing around what seemed like clothes, probably coming off a shopping trip.</p>
<p>Sandor snorted. “Top 40, no doubt.”</p>
<p>He might as well pass the time by guessing what music the other assholes maxing out their speakers were listening to, which he knew was creepy but it was either that or just stare into space until traffic started moving again, and if the sirens and smoke coming from the distance was anything to go by he was going to be staring for a while. Plus he had on his sunglasses, so he could at least hide his staring a little.</p>
<p>
  <em>*Tap* *Tap*</em>
</p>
<p>Sandor just barely heard it, with it mostly being muffled by the impromptu symphony of car horns and commute DJs, but couldn’t tell where it came from. He ignored it, chalking it up to just some kids fucking around cause they were board. Which he couldn’t begrudge them for.</p>
<p>
  <em>*Tap* *Tap* *Tap*</em>
</p>
<p>His fellow motorist must have gotten bored with their horns, as he was able to hear it much clearer this time. So clear, in fact, he was able to track it back to the source, turning his attention back to the Top 40 van.</p>
<p>Something was different this time though, the music was still blaring, clothes were still flying, and the girls were still laughing without a care in the world. All except one. One with short dark hair, a light dusting of freckles, and big, bright, grey eyes. This girl wasn’t joining in the revelry with her fellow passengers, instead opting to stare those grey eyes out the passenger window.</p>
<p>Right at him.</p>
<p>She grinned as soon as his attention was on her, and gestured with her head to the white board she had pressed to the glass that he <em>just</em> noticed. On it was a sequence of numbers she must have written with him in mind. Sandor tilted his head in confusion, immediately thinking of the stupid nickname his coworkers had given him and how accurate it really was. Which was apparently not the reaction she had been hoping far, as her eyes rolled skyward before taking the white board down and quickly writing on it, while Sandor could only stare in befuddlement.</p>
<p>Back up the whiteboard went, this time with a lot of underlining for the assumed phone number. Accompanying the new flair, in giant letters, were the words TEXT ME, also underlined many times and ending with way too many exclamation points to count. And the cherry on the weird ass sundae, was an arrow pointing right at the message maker herself, a pleading look on her face.</p>
<p>Sandor scrunched his eyebrows, but thought about it anyway. In all likely hood, it was a scam. Probably one of those text donation systems. No way a pretty young thing like that would want to talk to him through any means, his sunglasses doing nothing to hide the hellscape of his maw from her eyes. But he also was bored out of his mind, and knew his “Guess the Tune” game would end far before this gridlock did.</p>
<p>“Fuck it.” He muttered, pulling his phone out of his bag. He saw out the corner of his eye that the white-board-girl’s smiled. He typed out the number, knowing in his head he was doing something super stupid.</p>
<p>
  <em>Always good to give to charity.</em>
</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p></p><div class="texting">
  <p>Hey</p>
  <p>Oh thank god you actually texted me</p>
  <p>Wait, this is the dude on the bike right?</p>
  <p>Yeah, that’s me</p>
  <p>Prove it</p>
  <p>How many fingers am I holding up?</p>
</div><p> </p>
<p>Sandor looked, just in time to see her flip him off with a shit eating grin. He returned the gesture, fighting himself not to smile.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p></p><div class="texting">
  <p>Wow</p>
  <p>Devious</p>
  <p>In my defense</p>
  <p>It was way too easy</p>
  <p>Fair</p>
  <p>Why did you want me to text you white-board-girl</p>
  <p>Didn’t your mother ever tell you not to talk to strangers</p>
  <p>First of all, technically we’re texting, not talking</p>
  <p>Semantics</p>
  <p>Ooh, big word</p>
  <p>And second of all, my name is Arya</p>
  <p>Nice to meet you</p>
  <p>Sandor</p>
  <p>There, added you to my contacts and everything</p>
  <p>Not a stranger anymore</p>
  <p>Clever</p>
  <p>But you never answered my question</p>
  <p>Why are you just handing your number out?</p>
  <p>Because, if you are not aware, we are stuck in gridlock traffic</p>
  <p>And</p>
  <p>I</p>
  <p>Am</p>
  <p>Bored</p>
  <p>With all those people in your car?</p>
  <p>These bitches?</p>
  <p>(Kidding, I call them that but don’t mean it. Kind of an inside joke)</p>
  <p>Nah, they’re not really my friends. One is my sister and the rest are all her friends</p>
  <p>I just got dragged along</p>
  <p>Mom said I needed to spend more time with Sansa</p>
  <p>Who is my sister, fyi</p>
  <p>And I will never do it again</p>
  <p>That bad?</p>
  <p>I have been hearing them talk about shoes and skirts and bras</p>
  <p>All</p>
  <p>Day</p>
  <p>And. I. Am. Sick. Of. It.</p>
  <p>Damn</p>
  <p>So I can either sit here and contemplate the easiest way to end my life</p>
  <p>Or I can text the stranger with a kick ass motorcycle</p>
  <p>It is a pretty cool bike</p>
  <p>Yes, it is</p>
  <p>So, as I said</p>
  <p>Thank God you texted me</p>
  <p>Why the fuck do you have a white board anyway?</p>
  <p>Who just carries with them a white board?</p>
  <p>Definitely not me</p>
  <p>It’s Sansa’s</p>
  <p>Said its for road trip games</p>
  <p>Wow</p>
  <p>I know</p>
  <p>Anyway, tell me about yourself Sandor</p>
  <p>As a damsel in distress, I simply must know about my knight in shining armor</p>
</div><p> </p>
<p><em>Damsel in distress.</em> Sandor snorted to himself. <em>Right.</em></p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p></p><div class="texting">
  <p>I aint no knight</p>
  <p>And I don’t know many damsels who would flip their knights off on first meeting</p>
  <p>That’s because I am one of a kind Sandor</p>
  <p>I noticed</p>
  <p>You’re stalling</p>
  <p>Am not</p>
  <p>Oh yes you are</p>
  <p>I’m a private person</p>
  <p>Which I get</p>
  <p>We did just meet</p>
  <p>But at least give me the elevator speech</p>
  <p>Age</p>
  <p>Job</p>
  <p>Fun Facts</p>
  <p>Stuff like that</p>
  <p>Hard to really converse otherwise</p>
  <p>Converse?</p>
  <p>I can use big words, too</p>
  <p>That word is about as big as you</p>
  <p>Wow</p>
  <p>First of all</p>
  <p>How dare you</p>
  <p>Second of all</p>
  <p>How can you even tell how tall I am?</p>
  <p>I’m in a car, could be 7 feet tall</p>
  <p>You wouldn’t know</p>
  <p>I can tell based on everyone else in the car</p>
  <p>That’s not reliable</p>
  <p>What if my seat is just lower than theirs?</p>
  <p>Is it?</p>
  <p>No</p>
  <p>But it could have been</p>
  <p>AH, your stalling again!</p>
  <p>Don’t know what you’re talking about</p>
  <p>Fine, I’ll start</p>
  <p>I’m 23, and I work at Winterhold Gym as a personal trainer</p>
  <p>Hey I go to Winterhold</p>
  <p>East or West?</p>
  <p>West</p>
  <p>Nooooooo</p>
  <p>Sandor you gotta go to the East one</p>
  <p>Why?</p>
  <p>West always gets the hand me down machines</p>
  <p>And the staff are the worst, we always try to avoid dealing with them</p>
  <p>But most importantly</p>
  <p>I work at the East gym</p>
  <p>Hm, I’ll look into it</p>
  <p>Its not far from where you live is it?</p>
  <p>Nah, maybe 5 minutes further</p>
  <p>Great, hope I see you there</p>
  <p>Why?</p>
  <p>What do you mean why?</p>
  <p>Why do you hope to see me?</p>
  <p>You don’t even know me</p>
  <p>Well I would know you better if you answered my questions</p>
  <p>Fine</p>
  <p>I’m 35, work at King’s Construction</p>
  <p>Oooh, a construction man</p>
  <p>I half expected you to say you were in a biker gang</p>
  <p>I used to be</p>
  <p>NO WAY</p>
  <p>I was totally joking</p>
  <p>Were you really?</p>
  <p>Yeah, when I was young</p>
  <p>A bad boy I see</p>
  <p>To the bone.</p>
</div><p> </p>
<p>Sandor cringed the moment he sent it, his fingers having moved before his brain could stop them. What a fucking stupid line, what the hell was he trying here? He just said she didn’t know him, and he definitely didn’t’ know her, yet he goes and drops a line on her like that? What the fuck was he thinking?</p>
<p>But he knows what he was thinking, it’s the same thing he’s been thinking since he first saw her.</p>
<p>
  <em>Holy fucking shit she’s gorgeous</em>
</p>
<p>His eyes roamed back to her, to watch the grimace the line deserved form on her face. But it never came, instead her hand immediately went to her mouth and her shoulders shook. Her eyes seeked out his and instead of the judgment he expected all he saw was mirth. She was tickled pink, struggling to hide it from her fellow car mates, and it was all because of him. He grinned right back at her, ignoring for the first time how the expression would distort his scars.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p></p><div class="texting">
  <p>Okay, that was funny</p>
  <p>I could tell</p>
  <p>You almost chocked yourself to death</p>
  <p>I had to!</p>
  <p>You caught me off guard</p>
  <p>Don’t want everyone to hear</p>
  <p>I know they’d wanna know who I was texting</p>
  <p>Cause they are nosy like that</p>
  <p>And I definitely don’t wanna tell them I’m texting the biker hunk next to us</p>
  <p>Margery would pounce</p>
  <p>Hunk?</p>
</div><p> </p>
<p>Sandor blinked a couple times, to make sure he wasn’t just imagining the adjective she just attached to him. He glanced at her to make sure she wasn’t wearing that shit eating grin again, then he’d know she was fucking with him. No grin in sight, instead the grimace that he had expected previously decided to make an appearance.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p></p><div class="texting">
  <p>Shit</p>
  <p>You know how sometimes you think about saying something</p>
  <p>While saying something else</p>
  <p>And then accidently say out loud the part that was supposed to just stay in your head?</p>
  <p>That just happened to me</p>
  <p>You think I’m a hunk?</p>
  <p>I get it already!</p>
  <p>I’m already embarrassed enough as it is</p>
  <p>No need to rub it in</p>
  <p>Why the hell would you think I’m a hunk?</p>
  <p>Are you serious?</p>
  <p>Sandor, have you looked at yourself?</p>
  <p>Yeah, every day</p>
  <p>That’s why I’m so confused</p>
  <p>Then you need glasses my good man</p>
  <p>Luckily I have 20/20 vision</p>
  <p>So I can tell you what you are missing</p>
  <p>No, I think I can point out one big thing you’re missing</p>
  <p>You mean your scar?</p>
  <p>You think that makes you ugly?</p>
  <p>No way</p>
  <p>Absolutely not</p>
  <p>Have you looked at my face?</p>
  <p>I’m looking at it right now</p>
</div><p> </p>
<p>Sandor growled at the screen, turning quickly to catch the eye of the watchful Arya. She smiled at him, frustrating him even further. <em>Maybe my glasses hide more then I thought</em>. Sandor rationalized, ripping the offending glassware off to meet Arya’s eyes with his fully for the first time. Her smile seemed to get even bigger, much to his puzzlement, before she quickly looked down at her lap.</p>
<p>Sandor scoffed, thinking this was the end of their little traffic correspondence now that she’s seen his face fully, and trying to ignore the disappointment slowly bleeding into his bones. These thoughts were short lived, as his phone vibrated yet again.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p></p><div class="texting">
  <p>Yup, still a hunk</p>
  <p>Wait</p>
  <p>Oh shit</p>
  <p>Oh god this is embarrassing</p>
  <p>I get it now</p>
  <p>Shit</p>
  <p>Sorry</p>
  <p>Normally I’m better at seeing this</p>
  <p>Happens a lot with me actually</p>
  <p>What the fuck are you talking about girl?</p>
  <p>I get it</p>
  <p>Really I do</p>
  <p>She is really pretty, can understand why you’d want her</p>
  <p>What the fuck?</p>
  <p>Who?</p>
  <p>My sister!</p>
  <p>Who the fuck is your sister?</p>
  <p>Sansa, the red head in the drivers seat.</p>
</div><p> </p>
<p>Sandor suddenly realized he had no idea what anyone else in Arya’s vehicle even looked like, his eyes tunneling so hard onto Arya that the rest of them just faded into the background. He glanced up, ignoring the befuddling disappointment clear on Arya’s face, to the driver of the Arya-van. Red hair, women, in the driver seat. Her info checked out. Pretty enough, sure. Arya levels, no. <em>Now why the fuck is Arya talking about me liking her? A woman I just noticed?</em></p>
<p> </p>
<p></p><div class="texting">
  <p>I don’t want her</p>
  <p>Why the hell would I want her?</p>
  <p>I just noticed her</p>
  <p>Oh come on man, don’t do that</p>
  <p>I’m a big girl, I can take rejection, but lying is just shitty</p>
  <p>I don’t fucking lie</p>
  <p>And I don’t want her</p>
  <p>I had no idea what anyone else in that van even looked like till now</p>
  <p>So what the fuck are you talking about?</p>
  <p>You don’t find me pretty compared her</p>
</div><p> </p>
<p>Sandor laughed, a deep belly laugh. A laugh that seemed to echo all over the gridlocked highway, overtaking even the blaring music and blaring horns of all the stuck motorist. He had to, how the hell could he read <em>that</em> and not laugh. A fucking beauty like that? Not pretty? Best joke he’s ever fucking read.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p></p><div class="texting">
  <p>You’re laughing</p>
  <p>I can see it</p>
  <p>Hell, I can even hear it</p>
  <p>Which is impressive</p>
  <p>But I can’t seem to understand why</p>
  <p>Because that is the best fucking joke I’ve ever read</p>
  <p>You?</p>
  <p>Not pretty?</p>
  <p>Nah you’re right</p>
  <p>You’re fucking gorgeous girl</p>
  <p>I ain’t ever seen a girl look like you before</p>
  <p>And your sister ain’t even in your league</p>
  <p>Really?</p>
  <p>Yes girl, you’re crazy if you think I’m looking anywhere else</p>
  <p>Wow</p>
  <p>Thanks, I mean</p>
  <p>Okay I don’t really know what to say now</p>
  <p>Never really had anyone say anything like that before</p>
  <p>Thanks, again</p>
  <p>It really means a lot</p>
  <p>No one’s ever said you were pretty?</p>
  <p>Really?</p>
  <p>I don’t believe it</p>
  <p>Well some guys have</p>
  <p>But then they’d meet my sister</p>
  <p>And suddenly things were different</p>
  <p>They were different</p>
  <p>Towards me</p>
  <p>Then they were cunts</p>
  <p>Guess so</p>
  <p>But you’re not</p>
  <p>No, I’m not</p>
  <p>Okay so I know we haven’t technically met</p>
  <p>But I would really like to</p>
  <p>Meet you, that is</p>
  <p>Do you think you’d like to get some coffee or something sometime?</p>
</div><p> </p>
<p>Sandor stared at those 12 words, running them over in his head repeatedly until they completely lost their meaning and became a pile of word paste.</p>
<p>
  <em>She wants to go on a date? With me? What the fuck?</em>
</p>
<p>He glanced at her, hoping to meet her eyes so he could figure out if this whole thing was just a joke, a prank played by her and the other inhabitants of the car to get the freak’s hopes up before crushing them into dust. But she seemed to be purposely not looking at him, drumming her hands on the dash in what he hoped was a nervous gesture. Sandor took a deep breath and started typing at his phone before he could talk himself out of it.</p>
<p>
  <em>Texting her at all was stupid, how much worse could agreeing to go on a date be?</em>
</p>
<p></p><div class="texting">
  <p> </p>
  <p>Hell yes</p>
  <p>I’d love that</p>
  <p> </p>
</div><p>Sandor heard a joyous cheer, even over the horns and sirens, and quickly snapped his eyes to see it came from Arya. She had the biggest grin he’d seen yet on her face as she stared at her phone, almost like she could barely believe it was real, before typing away.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p></p><div class="texting">
  <p>Great!</p>
  <p>So where would you aqwfmqoeim</p>
  <p>Aadajfasfxmvv</p>
  <p>Aeqweq</p>
  <p>Af</p>
</div><p> </p>
<p>
  <em>What the fuck?</em>
</p>
<p>Sandor looked over in concern, only to see Arya attempting to dive into the back seat of the van, the only thing holding her back being her sister. In the back seat someone was holding a phone victoriously, typing on it giddily. Everyone seemed to be yelling, about what Sandor had no idea, but it seemed really important based off the look on Arya’s face.</p>
<p>Suddenly his phone ringed. He looked, shocked to see Arya was calling him, even though he could see she wasn’t holding her phone.</p>
<p>Sandor answered and cautiously brought the phone to his ear. “Hello?”</p>
<p>“HI!” A far too cheerful voice said on the other end. “So you’re the man Arya’s been ignoring us for.”</p>
<p>“Uhh.”</p>
<p>“Margery I swear to god I’ll kill you if you don’t give me my phone back.” A very angry voice said in the background, while another tried to soothe her.</p>
<p><em>So that’s what she sounds like.</em> Sandor thought.</p>
<p>“Oh hush Arya, I was just curious. Weren’t you curious how your new beau sounded?”</p>
<p>“Margery!” Arya growled in warning.</p>
<p>“So, as her friends we felt it appropriate to find out who you are. Figure out if you’re the right fit for our little Arya.” Margery continued, seemingly ignoring Arya.</p>
<p>“Margery come on, stop it.” A fourth voice sounded off.</p>
<p>“Oh don’t tell me you aren’t curious Jeyne.” Margery dismissed.</p>
<p>Sandor couldn’t even answer if he wanted to, everyone rushing to talk over each other leaving him with little room to actually get a word in. Glancing over, he could see Arya’s eyes dashing between him and the phone thief known as Margery. Suddenly an idea struck him, a really funny, really fucking stupid idea, but so far those have been working out pretty well for him today so why stop now?</p>
<p>Without hanging up, he swung his leg over and stood off his bike, spending a little bit of time to enjoy the change in position after sitting for so long. Arya’s eyes were almost exclusively on him now, eyes widened and looking him up and down, almost assuredly marveling at his height. Sandor took the few steps over to her car and leaned down, his face level with the girl’s in the back who had her back to him, before he knocked on the window.</p>
<p>The girl jumped, as did seemingly everyone else in the vehicle, and quickly turned around. Once she got a look at him, though, her eyes widened and she covered her mouth in shock. This reaction was mirrored almost exactly by everyone else except of course Arya, though she was just as surprised as the others.</p>
<p>Sandor put his phone back to his ear, and rasped to the other end. “Give Arya back her phone.”</p>
<p>If their eyes were wide before, they were positively saucers now. They looked at Arya’s phone, looked at him, looked at Arya, then back to him. Mouth agape, Margery slowly handed Arya back her phone. Arya snatched it back, shooting a glare at Margery before gifting him with a smile as she put the phone up to her ear. “My knight comes to save me yet again. We still on for coffee?”</p>
<p>Sandor grinned, holding in his laughter at the looks on the other’s faces. “I’m no bloody knight, and make it dinner.” He said before he turned and sauntered back to his bike.</p>
<p>Once he was fully seated the truck behind him honked yet again. Sandor turned, fire in his eyes, and growled. Before he could yell at the driver another honk sounded, as if in solidarity, behind Arya’s van. Sandor looked over, seeing that they all were still staring at him, before looking ahead.</p>
<p>Only to see that traffic had finally started moving again, albeit slowly. And there was at least a three-car gap between where they sat and where the rest of traffic was moving away.</p>
<p><em>When the hell did that happen?</em> Sandor thought, kicking up the stand on his bike before tucking his phone away and giving one last glace to Arya. She wasn’t paying attention, typing out on her phone what was probably multiple messages to him about what just happened.
